Reliability and smart design from Volter

After reviewing various CHP technologies on the market and after seeing the Volter 40 Indoor unit in Japan, Keiwa were convinced of the reliability of the Volter unit and in how the supply system and energy distribution systems are organized. They saw the Volter 40 Indoor smart design adding marketing value to the company.

This installation was done by Volter´s distributor in Japan, Volter Japan.

Solution: Volter 40 Indoor

One Volter 40 Indoor produces enough electricity and heat for the annual needs of a farm, an entire small housing estate or small business. Our plants can be scaled up to multi-unit installations in order to meet the needs of growing energy demand across diverse applications. Electricity is produced by gasifying wood chips or pellets. Waste heat from the process can be used in hydronic underfloor heating, preheating of air-conditioning or domestic water, to name a few.
